Ah, I also wanted to switch explosive runes for haste
(to support this, allow me to point out just how broken explosive runes are
Effectively, I can do xd6 damage in a round without really trying)

I am totally counting on a conflict of interests here. That's what makes the game fun.

She may go berserk, but the chance is minimal. Since none have been down there yet, you don't know how big Star Room is. But need not worry, you still have time. Xander will probably read the journal and find something there about her last seance, as well as the ritual involved. Tarith can always sneak into Jacob's house, find the other two keys and open the vault solo.

So I can do exactly as I said both IC and OOC. Raise angelis, drop your two ravens off. Check on Rosalind. Get the right spells to make it less likely to die.

... Dantie, you already know all your spells...
It shouldn't take you and Xander a day to get there and back. More like an hour or so...

er... positive energy protection is like a dispel check. You will auto fail that roll.

EDIT: Life Ward, a 4th level spell, does work however.

because last time this was done, she did, and nothing has changed between then and now.

out of idle curiosity, did that choice cause any issues?

The choice to refuse her help? Doubtful. She most likely feels ashamed to have had her help refused, but not go nova on the village.

She is...stable..ish, so to speak.

Well, given that, I am glad that I did not roll a CG female for this game... Who would probably have tried to get to the why, and would have inevitibly ended up at: power that has no control is not power. Since your power is from your past, you probably need to know what that past was in order to control your power.

I suppose we could have suggested draining her mostly before she tries, to minimize the power she has to lose control of...

The problem with draining her is- nobody knows what Arrallae is, not even her. At least nobody you know, Jacob included.

we do know she has a finite amount of power, and that she can be drained, as demonstrated by the eastern coven.

Yes. her power can lessen in potency. But she has yet to unveil her max- which will probably not happen. At any rate, you won't be asking her to perform the seance- a shame really, it would've revealed some nice tidbits.

times to know good players from bad ones: in an OOc vs IC conflict, IC wins.

A Quote I quite enjoy " To be strong and safe you must keep secrets." Them secrets she can keep so we do not die. Unless Xander tricks Dantie onto his side, quite possible after all. With the whole Morningstar thing.Well night everyone

Times you know you forgot something.

Realizing that you just let 2 NPC's that may have had relevant info leave, without asking them any questions...

At this point, Arrallae should not be your number one concern.

Yea this should be fun, Tarith wants to leave with the seal broken. Dantie wants to stay and seal it. Xander is Xander.

Arrallae is not really Tarith's concern at this point. merely want to get the stuff in the vault.

Xander spell advice:
Sorc looks fine. Probably want to replace electric jolt and daze with amanuesis and message(both useful spells)
Wiz side: I don't think telepathic bond is worth half of your 5th level slots. If you had 4 slots, then it would be fine, but with 2, it is sort of iffy. Your 5th level slots should be I win this encounter style spells. Grab swift concentration, and telekinesis, allowing you to do 2 things, instead of one, in a combat.

Tarith, since I get 4 wizard spells each lvl this is what else I picked up, Im in the middle of working them in, and I have more spell slots than filled on my sheet right now, will have 3 5th lvl spells(the spells per day at the left is updated, but I need to finish deciding on the wizard spell slots for the day but that should be done soon.

lvl 2 gust of wind, Rope trick, Fox’s Cunning
lvl 3 keen edge
lvl 4 Dimensional Anchor, Enervation

If you have 3 slots, then it is more worthwhile, as you can afford for one of them to be utility.
Contingency... Should be cast, and basically be a if I am going to die, teleport/d-door me away.

But your domain slots are very valuable as well, as they give you access to spells you wouldn't have otherwise

Reasons why the healing domain is horrible.
Also, the magic domain owns.

Healing domain has its use when its free. +1 to all my healing spells for caster level. But besides that yea useless. And I can pay the Xp to make it for good instead of for x amount of time.

Also Xander likes the idea of having Arrallae try to divine the future, as he wants a much information on what is going on as possible, and might even still recommend she do it, especially if we take some precautions and fine a way to help prevent a episode. He doesn't think swans rest should be permanently locked up as it was before, but until we have seen the vault, and Xander has read Steiner's journal further objections are on hold as the majority thinks its a bad idea at the moment.

@Dantie: Please readjust Angelis' stats. Remember he has lost 1HD from being raised. He was a 6HD outsider, so he'd lose BAB, skills, saves, 1 feat, and hp according to his new 5HD stat block. Also adjust DCs for his special attacks.

You could walk around. Maybe even go talk to Arrallae in the meantime. Engage in idle talk. There are those stones for the three main fountains too. As a last resort, get to know some of the villagers.
